Commercial Security Service
Protecting South Florida Businesses From Theft, Vandalism & Liability
Our commercial security guards protect your business from vandalism, fires, theft and robberies whether you operate a single retail storefront in Miami or a multi-building industrial park in Doral. Every officer is licensed by the State of Florida, completes a 40-hour field training program with an experienced officer, and reports to leadership drawn from executive-level law enforcement.
Almond Tree has protected South Florida property for over 45 years, beginning with agriculture and expanding into commercial, industrial and retail security across Miami-Dade, Broward and Monroe County. We build a strategic security plan around your property not a one-size-fits-all guard post.

Questions
Commercial Security FAQs
How much do commercial security guards cost in Miami?
Rates depend on armed vs unarmed officers, number of hours, shift times and site risk. Overnight and armed coverage costs more than daytime unarmed posts. We provide a written quote after a free on-site assessment no hidden fees, and no long-term contract required to start.
What can security guards legally do in Florida?
Private security officers in Florida do not have the same general powers as police officers. Their role typically includes access control, observation, patrol, incident documentation, de-escalation, property-rule enforcement, and contacting law enforcement when necessary. In certain circumstances, Florida law may permit temporary detention, but the legal authority depends on the specific location, conduct, and facts involved.
For a detailed explanation, read our guide to whether security guards can detain you in Florida.
Do I need armed or unarmed security guards?
Most offices, retail stores and property-management sites are well served by unarmed Class D officers. Armed Class G officers are recommended for cash handling, high-value inventory, dispensaries and higher-risk locations. We’ll give you an honest recommendation during your assessment we don’t upsell armed coverage you don’t need.
How fast can you deploy security officers to my business?
We respond to every request within 2 hours and can deploy licensed officers within 4 hours anywhere in Miami-Dade, Broward or Monroe County including nights, weekends and emergency situations such as terminations or sudden closures.
Do you provide armed officers for remote properties?
Can I hire security guards for a short period or one-off situation?
Absolutely. We provide temporary and emergency security guards for terminations, strikes, special circumstances, seasonal peaks and short-term projects as well as long-term contracts,
